Up in the trees


We were dying to go up there too, but, promise, next time, the grown-ups will get to go play in the canopy as well. Parc Adventure in Switzerland. Our little world travelers had a blast...

Big teeth behind the trees






The life-size dinosaur exhibition set in a forest in Switzerland got extended until August. Perfect for us...

View of Geneva Lake









Meeting with Yvana, Michael (who was celebrating his 20th birthday), Oceane, Edith and Thomas, at the Signal de Bougy, park where I hadn't been since... kindergarten... Splendid view (and still, on the picture, we only see the Geneva end of the lake) to play miniature golf. There're the pros, and there're the seriously amateurs, but age has nothing to do with it...

First ride







Annual visit at the Yung in their great little farm. And the perfect excuse for Anastasia's first ride (she's been eyeing horses for a while, but would always be a bit scared once closer to the creature). "Aigle noir" has the perfect size, and since, she already rode a slightly higher horse... Looking forward to taking her ride in far away meadows...

Tractors and co.






Still catching up on the "swiss" posts, and it's not quite over yet, but we always bring back a lot of lovely memories...

Visit in Siviriez, at the impressive farm of Tristan and Ethan. Perfect for Kyan and Anastasia who love animals, although they're slowing warming up to the various tractors and other farming equipments. It was just so sweet to watch them play among cousins, especially when Kyan speaks french with his little accent from elsewhere...

Mortigue, still



The perfect setting for young primitif urbanists... We built a whole city on the water, swept away by the river a few thunderstorms later...

Altitude inspiration





I took advantage of my time off in the Alps to create a few small creatures with clay. Pictures taken by the river, in their natural habitat... The little guys measure between 0.5 and 1.5 inch.

Valerie's bees







And a bit lower in the valley, just below the castle of Gruyere, we got to watch Laurent and Valerie extract the honey from their beehives... Miam...
